Misconceptions
Posted August 25, 2007
By fruitcup,
A lot of people were looking for this to be a 'Christian' record. While some of the lyrics are good, and of course the music is great, I wouldn't call this a Christian Rock record.
I was actually pretty upset when I heard "Misery Business" on Christian Rock radio. I love the song, but it's not a Christian song. It belongs on the secular alternative rock stations...which is fine.
So many times, secular bands, or even Christian bands, get thrusted into the spotlight and have their little breakout moment. For Paramore, this CD, and the single "Misery Business" is theirs. 'All We Know Is Falling' got them on the map, and now they're all over the place.
Yes, they are Christians, but not every 'Christian' is going to spend their time, money, record deal, and touring opportunities on songs that glorify our Savior.
That's a little something to think about.
Anyways...
I like the record. I'm not a fan of the slower songs like "We Are Broken"...but I love "That's What You Get"...
